Post Accutane

by Rocman, May 04, 2007 12:00AM
I just completed a 6-month accutane cycle for mild acne/mostly for excess oil and clogged pores.  The total dose was 8400 mg which is right @ the 120mg per kg target.  I averaged a little over .5 mg per kg/day.  On my last visit, the dermatologist said we were done but wrote a prescription for another 6 weeks @ 60 mg/day just to get the total dose a little higher.  I really just want to stop as summer is around the corner and the drug stays in your system at least a month after the last dose.  Any suggestions?
